An International Rescue Committee aid worker (his identity obscured for security reasons) takes us inside Areesha, northeast Syria. Here 43,000 people who fled ISIS are crowded into a camp built for half that number. Some 25,000 people in Areesha are living on one piece of bread a day. Others have nothing to eat.
